Vera Neumann was an American artist and entrepreneur best known for her boldly colored linen patterns and scarves signed "Vera" and featuring a ladybug.
Warm-up + Project
Let's take a look at Vera Neuman's designs; her style and, colors, and create our own original pieces.
Will you use bold colors, simple shapes, everyday images, or abstract patterns?
Consider a design for a scarf, a dinner plate, or a placemat. Neuman’s designs started as paintings. We will paint, paint, and paint!
Watercolors, colored pencils, markers, or cut paper, it's your choice!
